On Mirena

Share

I've been on Mirena since Dec 2012 I've had little spotting for a period since I got it but this morning when I woke up I had a heavy period with bad cramping. I've been cramping for a couple of days now but no bleeding. Has any one else had this or should I call my doctor.

I had my Mirena removed 12/1 and immediately started TTC. Last period was on 12/2 and nothing since. Multiple negative HPT and a negative blood test about 3 weeks ago, also no "pregnancy" symptoms. Called my doctor and was told to do an ultrasound and a second blood test. It was negative. I was so devastated. And then I was browsing on the internet and found this book from http://pregnancyhours.com, I thought I have nothing to lose to try it. 3 months after that I got BFP and we're happy knowing that I'm pregnant!

No answer, but I got my mirena in Dec 2012 too. I had really light, almost non-existent periods and this month is was long with heavy cramping too. I see my doctor next week for other unrelated post-partum stuff. I will ask her, I feel it is still in place so I am not really worried. I was told if something serious happened, like a puncture, you would feel it! Like horrible sharp pains. And I was also told that the first year is when you get used to it, some people spot for months before it goes away. Sorry, I could not be of more help.
